Understanding Variables in Kotlin

In this guide, we’ll explore variables in Kotlin, focusing on the use of val and var to handle mutable and immutable values. Let's learn how to define and use these variables effectively.

What Are Variables?

Variables in Kotlin can hold values that your program will use and manipulate. Use val for values that won’t change and var for values that might.

// Declaring variables
val language = "Kotlin"   // Immutable variable
var version = 1.4         // Mutable variable
